Adding multiple codes into the DISQUS Settings of blogs

July 25, 2009

The facility for adding comments using the DISQUS feature also allows you to add extra HTML coding to each post if it's relevant to the process of the comment.

For instance I have installed the DIGG Submit and Vote button via this method. I have also added the pingback facility by placing the relevant code into the DISQUS Settings of the blog. The post is in this blog Installing the Pingback module into DISQUS enabled Yola blogs

Now there is a facility for adding CSS to the comments section of the DISQUS commentaries.

I don't know if there is any absolute limit to the number of code segments that can be added but I wouldn't think that there will be many to possibly add either.

The Trackback discussed here in fact is misnomer, it is a Pingback and will allow you to make a comment on a specific blog post of another writer. It is better described diagramatically as:

The Refback is the third type of "linkback" described by Six Apart, . It's not commonly referred to but is a way of determining who is referring to your posts within their posts. Once again an automatic function and it doesn't require any input or contact by either the original writer or the referencing writer.

One reader of course may have many interests and belong to a number of these social sites. It's simply a way to be informed and/or to be noticed. You...
